The effects of spirulina supplementation on redox status and performance following a muscle damaging protocol
(2021)Spirulina plantensis is a popular supplement which has been shown to have antioxidant and performance enhancing properties. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of spirulina supplementation on (a) redox ... -
Evidence of a Redox-Dependent Regulation of Immune Responses to Exercise-Induced Inflammation
(2016)We used thiol-based antioxidant supplementation (n-acetylcysteine, NAC) to determine whether immune mobilisation following skeletal muscle microtrauma induced by exercise is redox-sensitive in healthy humans. According to ... -
Iron Supplementation Effects on Redox Status following Aseptic Skeletal Muscle Trauma in Adults and Children
(2017)Exercise-induced skeletal muscle microtrauma is characterized by loss of muscle cell integrity, marked aseptic inflammatory response, and oxidative stress. We examined if iron supplementation would alter redox status after ... -
Muscle damage and inflammation after eccentric exercise: Can the repeated bout effect be removed?
(2015)The current consensus in exercise physiology is that the repeated bout effect always appears after few eccentric exercise sessions. This is the first attempt to challenge this tenet, by exploiting specificity in muscle ... -
Position sense and reaction angle after eccentric exercise: The repeated bout effect
(2008)The purpose of the present investigation was to examine the effects of a repeated eccentric exercise on position sense and muscle reaction angle. Fourteen healthy women underwent an isokinetic exercise session on their ... -
Resistance-Trained Individuals Are Less Susceptible to Oxidative Damage after Eccentric Exercise
(2018)It has been proposed that exercise-induced oxidative stress and adaptations are dependent on training status. In this study, we examined the effects of training background on free radical generation and adaptations after ...
